At the beginning of each month, you will find me at my kitchen breakfast bar with my planner and goals sheets reviewing how things went the last month and revising my goals for the next month. I look back at my quarterly goals to see if I am on track and check in on my yearly goals as well. Sometimes…
Nutrition information is everywhere we look. Someone always has a new diet, supplements, or theory on what we should and should not be eating.

There are doctor’s appointments, haircuts, school supply shopping, school clothes shopping, sports and music practices and camps, finding out school schedules, and if you have a child going to college for the first…
